Popis: In the last decades major changes have occurred in most European countries, in the structure of work and in the work environment of the companies. The composition of their workforce has changed (McMurray & Scott, 2013). Workers worldwide have become more mobile and distances and physical space are not anymore an obstacle in workforce mobility. Employees moving freely from a cultural space to another are carrying with them their home-values and the cultural settings that are influencing their way of working and behaving. In the last years researchers from different cultural spaces have analyzed the specificity of this influence upon work ethic. The paper will present a synthesis of these findings and will underline the cross-cultural approach and the influences upon the construction of Work Ethic.
